Leo Full Moon

 
 
IMG_6261.jpeg

This Leo Full Moon is exactly at 11:16am PST / 2:16pm EST / 7:16pm GMT

Welcome to the first full moon of 2021! This is a powerful portal of shift to release that which no longer uplifts you, and illuminates your heartfelt & passionate self to roar as the wise leader of your own life (Leo). Now is the time to amplify your sacred desires and offer your gifts to serve in the world with a sense of inpsired action and responsibility.

This is a pivotal window for us as a collective where our feelings, emotions, and intuition come to light to catalyze renewal and regeneration at the level of the heart, solar center and soul. It is a Full Moon to breakthrough adversity and resurrect self-love, unconditional love, forgiveness, compassion, truth and power. And it is a time to liberate and celebrate the wild soul that you are!

As Venus is at the Root Chakra, this full moon brings forth amplified feelings, emotions, and intuition connected to your relationships, your sense of belonging, stability, feeling grounded and supported! Worry, hesitation, doubt and mistrust may arise. Know that these challenges are part of your alchemical process. Stay steady. The Fires of Purification are burning away all illusion - until the the Truth of who you are remains. 

Call upon the Royal Rose Lions of Sirius & Lyra in this Leo full moon to support continued releasing of distortion AND to empower the royal illumination of your heartfelt and passionate Self! It is time to Rise as the Queen of your life! ROAR that which has been holding you back, and that which you are reclaiming! This celestial activation ignites creativity, inspired passion and devotional desires for offering your gifts as sacred service in the world on the Path of your Becoming. And so it is!  

This is also the 'Wolf Moon' that comes from Indigenous Tribes of North America who gave names to each of the moons, in relation to their qualities connected to nature and the seasons. This particular moon was when the wolves would appear in the middle of winter, howling with hunger in villages.

Wolf Medicine, representing ‘Teacher’, great wisdom, wildness and inner freedom is beckoning our attention. Maybe you are already feeling it in your bones and are ready to dance and howl! This Wolf Moon reminds us of the importance to express our heart's truth and our wildness, to live feeling free.

Leo Full Moon Ritual

This potent ritual is offered in love to your Bright Soul! The intention of this ritual is to empower you in releasing anything that may be preventing you from living in the fullest expression of your Wild Sacred Feminine Essence and rise in the wisdom, beauty, and truth that you are. Blessings to you!

  • Build a fire and bask in the radiant flames. Let the heat penetrate your body. Let the colours into your eyes, empty yourself of thoughts and allow for the flames to guide you deep within. If you can't build a fire, then light some candles and bask in the full moon's light if possible.

  • Write down all the things in your life that you were told you couldn't do, or weren't allowed to do and all the beliefs that arose from that. Take your time with this...

  • Then Reflect on how this makes you feel, speak your feelings, write them down and allow your body to express these feelings.

  • Now investigate how this has affected your life and may still be affecting you. Again, take your time.

  • Then offer to the fire all the parts the beliefs that are not true, that you may have been living with. Honour them for their time with you and now they are no longer needed. Sacred. Deep. Release.

  • Dance Dance Dance! If with a fire, let the heat of the fire soften your body and move in ways that make you feel free and empowered. Dance your truth. Dance your heart and soul.

  • Speak aloud what you are capable of, and the truth of who you are! Speak your wisdom and what your passions are. You can start each sentence with I Am.... and claim your truth. Run wild with this! When you feel complete (and maybe after many tears...) Repeat, "And so it is!" as many times as you like. This will anchor in and affirm your sacred truths.

  • Finally, write down these truths, so that you can refer back to it when you need reminded of your power.

  • Close with gratitude and long deep breathing. Or, continue in whatever way feels most resonant for you.

  • Remember: Put out your gemstones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal and activation. Preferable in salted water (sensitive stones and jewels leave out the salt part).

  • Commune: Gather is an intentional way with loved ones and do the above ritual together if possible for extra potency and support. Now is a such a powerful time to be with the energy of the collective.

Full Moon rituals can be done the day before, of and after the actual full moon. This is the 3 day potency period. Blessings to you in this powerful and wild and powerful time.

Love Achintya

FULL MOON RITUALS

Empty Presence: Be quiet & still for 10 - 30 mins. Listen. Feel your heartbeat. Breath deep. Be present with yourself. 

Honouring 2021: What are you celebrating and honouring in your life from the past year? What were your greatest lessons and how can it serve you now? 

Releasing 2021: What are you laying to rest from 2021? What is ready to be washed away or buried?

Creating 2022 Magick: Create an altar representing all you are calling forth for 2022 and/or place a 'Wishing Bowl' with your written or creatively drawn intentions under the moonlight to be amplified. Key: Focus on how you wish to feel along with any specific things you desire to come to fruition. Keep this altar (and add it to if desired) all the way through until the New Year.

Remember: Put out your gemstones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal, and activation. Place an apple (or any other fruit) beside it and eat it the next day to assimilate the Magick into your Being.

Commune: Gather is an intentional way with loved ones and do any of the above together and create your own. Now is a time to be with the energy of the collective.

Full Moon rituals can be done the day before, of, and after the actual full moon. This is the 3 day potency period. Blessings to you in this wondrous and magical time.

Gemini Full Moon Eclipse

IMG_5084.PNG

The Gemini Full Moon is exact on November 30th at 1:30 am PST. The Penumbral Lunar Eclipse will be shortly after at, 1:43 am PST.

This Full Moon Eclipse illuminates both shadow and light and calls for us to integrate both. This is simultaneously a descent into your innermost chambers to release the past and a rise in celebration for all the blessings and lessons of the past year. This paradox is a Gemini moon code revealing opportunities for multi-faceted communication cosmically, internally, relationally, emotionally and spiritually that can offer personal transformation and healing in our collective consciousness.

This is a powerful time for expressing, amending, releasing or forgiving through communication. This may be with yourself or others from the past (including your ancestors). In this dualistic medicine of Gemini, it is also the time for us to gather and rise in the power of our sovereignty and communicate our gratitude, compassion, and empathy for other, along with our sacred desires through prayer, song, dance, words, and actions. When we direct the power of our mind's intentions through the lens of the heart by giving thanks we activate healing and transformation within and all around us, birthing into being the world we want to live in.

This moon is also connected to the Ancient Dragon Mother Tiamat, of the Rose and Grail Lineages. There are two parts to the Tiamat myth. One is that in which Tiamat is Creatrix Goddess, through a “sacred marriage” between salt and fresh water, who peacefully creates the cosmos through successive generations. The second is that she is considered the embodiment of primordial chaos.

In the ancient Mesopotamian myth of Marduk’s slaying of Tiamat we find the recognition of duality. Tiamat is Goddess of the Primal Abyss, the void of chaos from which all the gods emerged, was depicted as a great dragon encircling and encompassing all known creation. As such She represents that great ground of being; pure, undifferentiated consciousness, from which the vital energies of the human psyche (otherwise known as the gods) ensue.

Allow her primordial energies to support the Remembrance of your Origin Code and life purpose at this time.

 This full moon is also known as the Shaman’s Moon.

Shaman's Moon Attributes:

  • Tarot: Death

  • Herbs: Grains of Paradise, Verbena, Borage, Blessed Thistle

  • Colors: Orange, Red, Sea-Green

  • Stones: Topaz, Hyacinth, Lapis Lazuli, Rose Quartz

  • Animals: Crocodile, Owl, Goose

  • Goddesses: Cerridwen, Mawu, Hecate

  • Medicine: Honoring our ancestors; Releasing the past; Transformation; Karmic Completion for Ascension; Gratitude; Reflection; Shadow + Light Work

 

Gemini Full Moon Eclipse Ritual Suggestions

  • Eclipsing Earth Connection: Stand or walk on the earth with bare feet. Imagine roots growing down from your feet and/or your womb space to the womb of Mother Gaia. Feel this as an anchoring pillar of light connecting you to the Earth and welcome in the magick of the Moon descending down from above moving through you, as you continue to send the energy deep into the earth to ground you, release stagnant or pent up emotional energy and have you feeling supported and nourished for rebirth.

  • Burn it: Write a list of the thoughts that are happening inside your head that you are ready to shift. Beliefs, stories, habits, all that you wish to leave behind while we are in the Dark time of the year, illuminated by the full moon. What are you letting go of? Free it up. Give it voice. Let it out. Let it go and burn it (safely) with a candle or campfire or fireplace. Then proceed to ritual below.

  • Heart Share: Write a letter, make a phone call or speak with a person you need to communicate with for any completions. Express your truth with heart and sincerity.

  • Stand in your Illuminated Vision: Let your visions come to life! Go deeper from the above ritual. With the space created from what you released, it's now time to get creative with making a 'vision board' of your medium (whether visually with a painting or drawings or dance or write in your journal) and express your truth, dreams and visions, and all that you wish to be amplified for yourself and for the planet. Place this out into the moonlight/speak it/sing it during the full moon window.

  • Gemstone Reminder: Put out your gemstones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal, and activation.

  • Apple of Wisdom: Place an apple and glass of water in the moonlight and have it for a 'Moon Wisdom' breakfast the next morning.

  • Commune: Gather in an intentional way with loved ones and do any of the above together and create your own. Now can be a powerful time to be with the energy of the collective.

 

Full Moon rituals can be done the day before, of and after the actual full moon. This is the 3 day potency period. Blessings to you in this wondrous and magical time. 

Love, Achintya

Lunar Samhain Rituals

IMG_3953.JPG

Blessed Withes New Year & Lunar Samhain Blessings! As the Samhain portal closes we begin the next Wheel of The Year tonight with Scorpio New Moon November 14, at 9:07pm PST . It is the end of one cycle and the beginning of another lunar cycle, seasonal cycle, and yearly cycle. Within the darkness and stillness is where all creation begins anew.

The Scorpio theme for the next moon cycle is about connecting with the intensity of our passions and emotions that lie in the deep watery realms within our our soul and to FEEL them. To listen to them, greet them, sense what wishes to remain, what limitations need to be released and cleared, what illusions need to and what is ready to be birthed.

It is a time to dive into our subconscious and affirm our courage to step into the mystery, into the unknown. As you hear the songs of your ancient-future Self, purge distortions, journey with your in the Dark and cast sacred spells of Magick, you being this next cycle of your Earth Walk anchored into your Authentic Self.
 

Lunar Samhain Rituals

Take Off The Mask:  Feel into any ways that you may be inauthentic with yourself and any masks that you may be wearing that aren't serving the essence of who you are. Draw or paint these out or write them down and then lay to rest any of the false faces that you may be wearing. In this way, the more you peel away the masks that aren't you, the more you can rise into the truth of who you are, right now, and emerge more fully as your radiant self.


Honour Your Ancestors:  Write down all the things you are grateful for about your lineage. The gifts you have received. The lessons you have learned. Perhaps you may wish to create an altar for your ancestors. In your unique way, create the space to offer gratitude to those that came before you and acknowledge them for the wisdom that now flows through you. They LOVE it if you make something delicious and offer it to them!

Fire Release Ritual:  You may also wish to connect with the parts of your lineage that may be less than joy filled. If you desire, you can get in touch with the part of you that feels feels angry, sad, frustrated and confused about what your blood line or lineage has passed down to you and offer this into the fires of transmutation (by literally building a fire or safely using a candle). You can write these down or say them out loud, or both. Then, move your body and make any desired sounds to finalize the release. When complete, you can offer any authentic words of forgiveness, empathy and realizations.

Empty The Mind. Feel Into Your Dreams:  Give yourself the gift of moving from your head to your heart. It's an auspicious time to FEEL your dreams. Your goals. Your desires. Scorpio is all about feeling. Bring any visuals or ideas about what you'd like to experience for your life into the visceral experience of your body. In this way, you are sending out messages to the universe to magnify these experiences into your life. Take some time to literally experience how your desires and dreams FEEL in your body. This is truly the magick of creating your life.

Aries Harvest Full Moon

This altar was offered with Love in Avalon by Achintya & Sunshine.

This altar was offered with Love in Avalon by Achintya & Sunshine.

The Aries Harvest Full Moon is exact Thursday, October 1 at 2:05pm PDT / 5:05pm EDT.

We are living at a time on Earth where there is an acceleration of simultaneous Beauty, Grace, Upheaval and Conflict in both our inner and outer worlds. And. All this is here to serve the Great Design of why you/we are here, Now.

With the Moon in Aries and the Sun in Libra, now is an auspicious opportunity release excess baggage on all levels and initiate the shifts needed to live your dreams and desires. With gratitude for all the lessons and gifts from the past season, it is now time to ignite the inner flames of your wild heart’s passion, strength, determination, commitment, ambition and your soul’s beauty.

Now is the window to break any chains of illusion, burn away disempowering beliefs, spark the remembrance of your truth and rise into new dimensions of trust, creativity, expression, harmonious relations, sovereignty, empowerment and love.

With this Harvest Moon in Aries, the opportunity is here to deepen into your Greatest Gratitude and light up your Warrioress Within. This is a Moon to both reflect and to amplify. To commune and celebrate. To share honour and reverence. To spark inspiration or (r)evolutionize your life. You may be called to sing, dance or be still. You may be ready to start something new or give death to something in your life. It may also be the time for you to release anger, rage, frustration or fear in healthy ways, to avoid continued internal tension and external aggression. Use the power of Fire wisely and it will support you fiercely.

The Aries Moon Medicine is also igniting you to take external action as the (R)Evolutionary and Warrioress by contributing your voice, energy, money (any form of action) to participate in the change you wish to see and Be in the world.

Your presence to embody both your inner Sacred Feminine and inner Sacred Masculine stimulates needed Awakening, Remembrance and Reclamation for us all!

  • What do you wish to ignite or re-ignite in your life?

  • What gifts are you reclaiming?

  • What is ready to be released?

  • What is being catalyzed within you?

  • How are you called to Revolutionize?

Whatever inspires you, move in that direction. Blessed Be.

IMG_0009.jpg

Harvest Moon Ritual Suggestions

  • Gratitude Harvest Altar & Release: Gather fruits and vegetables. Flowers and grains. Create an altar of abundance, representing all you are in gratitude of. List all the things you are grateful for in your life from this year so far and place this in the moonlight (outside or window) to attract more experiences to be grateful for. Write down all the things you are ready to release, change or shift and either bury them, burn them or offer them to a body of water.

  • Dream Speak: Pay close attention to your dreams tonight and through the weekend. Record them in a journal and speak them out loud. Only by writing them down or speaking them will the sometimes subtle (or not so subtle) meaning and message be revealed to you.

  • Make Space: Time to go through your cupboards, closet, garage etc... and let go of the excess. Spaciousness feels so good and you open yourself up to more internal power and creative life-force.

  • Be Still: With so much frequency shift happening now, simply closing your eyes to pay attention to your breath to pause for 5 minutes will do wonders for your nervous system (especially if you can do this 3 times a day, and longer than 5 if possible. Do what you can). Make sure to get a long and full sleep.

  • Tea Medicine: Drinking Tulsi & Gotu Kola herbal tea will soothe your nerves and calm your spirit. This also allows you to open up to magical and bountiful blessings being offered.

  • Earthing Creativity: Illuminate your dreams and get into your body! Create a vision board or a painting or dance or write in your journal all that you are bringing with you into the next season ahead. Place this out into the moonlight/speak it/sing out loud.

  • Moon Bathe: Get into the magic of the moonlight and absorb her luminous, activating, soul-stirring and healing balm. Look to the moon and speak the visions and dreams that you see for yourself and for the planet.

  • Remember: Put out your gem stones and jewels in a window or in water for cleansing, renewal, and activation. Place an apple and glass of water in the moonlight and have it for a 'Moon Wisdom' breakfast the next morning.

  • Commune: Gather in an intentional way with loved ones and do any of the above together and create your own. Now can be a powerful time to be with the energy of the collective. (See invitation below).
